    Nice 308 man
    I assume you put the 5 litre in yourself? The 5 litres only came out with the Calais' no?
    Your VK looks like it sits almost perfect allround. Looks very nice. What's it with the tail lights?!

    nope the 5L was available in all models, SL, Berlina, Calais etc.

    and your VK is sweet mate i like the bodykit, maybe get the bonnet scoop to complete the kit? clear lights look good surprisingly
